More than 200 participants joined this year’s ITS Austria Conference. AustriaTech together with the Austria Economic Chamber (WKO) organised a one-day event for Austria’s telematics and traffic & transport community on 11 November 2010 in Vienna.

The following issues were focused in the area of politics industry and R&D: What must an intelligent transport and traffic system achieve nowadays and in future? In what circumstances do single stakeholders need to work together towards a safer and more efficient transport and traffic system?

The round table discussions showed in particular the different approaches and identified the need to take action. In addition to the conference program the participants had the chance to get informed about current activities in the field of traffic telematics during face-to-face meetings with national operators research institutes and industry partners.

The organisers AustriaTech and WKO are planning to continue this kind of joint event in the near future.
